Rapid identification of a Serratia marcescens outbreak in a neonatal intensive care unit by third-generation long-read nanopore sequencing

3 Jun 2025

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Serratia marcescens is a frequent cause of outbreaks in high-risk hospital settings such as neonatal intensive care units (NICU). This study investigated a potential S. marcescens outbreak in the NICU of a reference children's hospital using Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS). Additionally, it assessed the performance of third-generation sequencing for the rapid and accurate identification and...
